n=0

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

sum = = 1 / ( 1-e^(-5) )

( 1.00678   to 5 decimals)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question: sum

[infinity]

Σ e^-5n

n=0

We note that this is a geometric series,

with n=0, e^(-5n) = e^0 = 1

with n=1, e^(-5n) = e^(-5)

with n=2, e^(-5n) = e^(-10)

...

Therefore the common ratio is r=e^(-5)

and the sum for a geometric series

a+ar+ar^2 + ... ar^N

=a(1-r^(N+1)) / (1-r)

=1(1-r^(infinity-1)) / (1-e^(-5))

= 1 / ( 1-e^(-5) )

BRAINLIEST ANSWER WINS! A satellite is to be put into an elliptical orbit around a moon as shown below. A vertical ellipse is shown surrounding a spherical object labeled, moon. The moon is a sphere with radius of 1000 km. Determine an equation for the ellipse if the distance of the satellite from the surface of the moon varies from 953 km to 466 km.

Answers

Answer:

D. x²/1953²  + y²/ 1466² = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

==>Given:

Radius of spherical moon = 1000km

Distance of satellite from moon surface = 953km to 466km

==>Required:

Derived equation of ellipse

==>Solution:

The formula for driving an equation of ellipse is given as:

x²/a² + y²/b² = 1

Where,

a = length of the semi-major axis, while,

b = length of the semi-major axis

Since we are told that the satellite distance to the surface of the moon varies from 953km to 466km, values of a and b is calculated by summing each length to the radius of the moon as follows:

a = radius of moon + the larger distance of the satellite = 1000+953 = 1,953km

b = radius of moon + the smaller distance of the satellite = 1000+466 = 1,466km

Thus, the equation of the ellipse would be:

x²/1953²  + y²/ 1466² = 1

Robert uses a wheelbarrow to haul wood from the back yard to his neighbor's house located 9 meters away. If he takes two breaks evenly when pushing the wheelbarrow to its destination, at which distance will he reach his first break?


Robert has 36 pieces to take, but can only take 9 each time. What distance in meters will he travel to move all the wood?

Answers

Answer:

3 meters

63 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for his two breaks to occur after even distances, simply divide his total path in three:

[tex]B = \frac{9}{3}\\ B=3\ meters[/tex]

He will reach his first break after 3 meters.

If he can only take 9 pieces at a time the number of trips required is:

[tex]n=\frac{36}{9}\\ n=4[/tex]

Note that he will have to back to the back yard for the first three trips (traveling back the 9 meters path). The total distance traveled is:

[tex]d= 3*(9+9)+9\\d=63\ meters[/tex]

He will travel 63 meters.

A random sample of 32 salespersons with a degree had an average weekly sale of $3599 last year, while 35 salespersons without a college degree averaged $3311 in weekly sales. The standard deviations were $468 and $642 respectively.

Required:
Is there evidence at the 5% level to support the retailer's belief?

Answers

Answer:

There is enough evidence to support the claim that the average sales are significantly greater for salespersons with a college degree than for salespersons without it.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

"A national computer retailer believes that the average sales are greater for salespersons with a college degree. A random sample of 32 salespersons with a degree had an average weekly sale of $3599 last year, while 35 salespersons without a college degree averaged $3311 in weekly sales. The standard deviations were $468 and $642 respectively.

Required:

Is there evidence at the 5% level to support the retailer's belief?"

This is a hypothesis test for the difference between populations means.

The claim is that the average sales are significantly greater for salespersons with a college degree than for salespersons without it.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu_1-\mu_2=0\\\\H_a:\mu_1-\mu_2> 0[/tex]

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample 1 (college degree), of size n1=32 has a mean of 3599 and a standard deviation of 468.

The sample 2 (non-college degree), of size n2=35 has a mean of 3311 and a standard deviation of 642.

The difference between sample means is Md=288.

[tex]M_d=M_1-M_2=3599-3311=288[/tex]

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\dfrac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{468^2}{32}+\dfrac{642^2}{35}}\\\\\\s_{M_d}=\sqrt{6844.5+11776.114}=\sqrt{18620.614}=136.4574[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

[tex]t=\dfrac{M_d-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_{M_d}}=\dfrac{288-0}{136.4574}=\dfrac{288}{136.4574}=2.11[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this test are:

[tex]df=n_1+n_2-2=32+35-2=65[/tex]

This test is a right-tailed test, with 65 degrees of freedom and t=2.11, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t>2.11)=0.019[/tex]

As the P-value (0.019) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to support the claim that the average sales are significantly greater for salespersons with a college degree than for salespersons without it.

Solve for the variables: 3x-4y=17 x-4y=3

Answers

Answer:

[tex]3x - 4y = 17ndx - y = 3 \\ 3x - x - 4y + 44y = 17 - 3 \\ 3x - x = 17 - 3 \\ 2x = 17 - 3 \\ 2x = 14 \\ x = 7 \\ \\ 7 - 4y = 3 \\ - 4y = - 4 \\ y = 1[/tex]

Answer:

x = 7

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 4y = 17

x - 4y = 3

Solve x in the second equation.

x = 3 + 4y

Put x as 3 + 4y in the first equation and solve for y.

3(3 + 4y) - 4y = 17

9 + 12y - 4y = 17

9 + 8y = 17

8y = 17 - 9

8y = 8

y = 8/8

y = 1

Put y as 1 in the second equation and solve for x.

x = 3 + 4(1)

x = 3 + 4

x = 7

I NEED HELP PLEASE ASAP!!!

Answers

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to go about this.

The general form of a conic equation is ...

  Ax^2 +Bxy +Cy^2 +Dx +Ey +F = 0

For AC > 0, this is the equation of an ellipse or circle. (AC < 0, hyperbola; AC = 0, parabola)

So, from the coefficients of the given equation, AC = 2·5 = 10, you know the equation is of an ellipse.

__

The rotation matrix for Cartesian coordinates tells you ...

  x = x'·cos(θ) +y'·sin(θ)

  y = -x'·sin(θ) +y'·cos(θ)

For θ = 45° the values of these trig functions are all (√2)/2. That is, there is no way to get coefficients in the rotated equation that involve √3. This eliminates choice 2.

The only remaining viable choice is choice 4.

__

If you like, you can substitute for x and y using the above relations. You will find that the result differs from any of the answer choices. The rotated figure will have the equation ...

  [tex]5x^2-6xy+9y^2+10\sqrt{2}x+2\sqrt{2}y-80=0[/tex]

For example, the x and y terms become ...

  [tex]6x-4y=6(x'\cos{(45^{\circ})}+y'\sin{(45^{\circ})})-4(-x'\sin{(45^{\circ})}+y'\cos{(45^{\circ})})\\\\=10x'\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}+2y'\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\\text{Multiplying this by 2 gives $\dots$}\\\\10x'\sqrt{2}+2y'\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Note that this is not the 10√2x' -10√2y' shown in choice 4.

__

Another way to look at this is to look at the angle of rotation relative to alignment with the x- and y-axes. That angle α is given by ...

  cot(2α) = (A -C)/B

For the original ellipse, the rotation angle is ...

  α = arccot((2 -5)/2)/2 ≈ -16.85°

For the transformed ellipse of choice 4, the rotation angle is ...

  α = arccot((9 -5)/6)/2 ≈ 28.15°

This is 45° more*, as it should be, indicating choice 4 is the better of the offered choices.

__

If you do the angle calculation for the 2nd answer choice, you will find it has no relation to a 45° rotation of the original ellipse.

_____

* While the computed rotation angle is as expected, the fact that the x^2 and y^2 coefficients have been swapped means that the long and short axes of the ellipse have been swapped. That is, the long axis of the ellipse has been rotated 45° in the wrong direction by the equation given in the answer choices. The second attachment shows the original ellipse (red), the properly rotated ellipse (dashed red) and the ellipse of choice 4 (blue).

Question:

The average college major requires 34 credit hours to complete, with a standard deviation of 3 hours. A college's academic advisors conduct a study to see how many credit hours a sample size of 50 students will need to take to complete their majors.

They calculate:

μx = μ = 34

σx = μ/√n = 34/√50 = 4.81

What did they do wrong?

Answer:

The sample mean will be the same as the population mean

μx = μ = 34

Whereas the standard deviation of the sample would be

σx = σ/√n

σx = 3/√50

σx = 0.424

Therefore, the college's academic advisors wrongly calculated the standard deviation of the sampling distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information we know that,

The population mean is

μ = 34 credit hours

The population standard deviation is

σ = 34 credit hours

The college's academic advisors take a sample size of 50 students so

sample size = n = 50

Since the sample size is quite large then according to the central limit theorem,

The sample mean will be the same as the population mean

μx = μ = 34

Whereas the standard deviation of the sample would be

σx = σ/√n

σx = 3/√50

σx = 0.424

Therefore, the college's academic advisors wrongly calculated the standard deviation of the sampling distribution.

(b) I paid 100% of what I could have online and on sale.
(c) I paid 200% of what I could have online and on sale.
(d) I paid 3 times what I could have online and on sale.

Answers

Answer:

(c) I paid 200% of what I could have online and on sale.

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplier for a increase of a% is 1 + a/100.

In this question:

You paid twice, which means that the multiplier is 2. So

a is the increase, as a percent.

[tex]1 + \frac{a}{100} = 2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a}{100} = 1[/tex]

[tex]a = 100[/tex]

You had an increase of 100% on the price. Since the original amount was 100% you paid 100 + 100 = 200%(100% more, 2 times) of what you could have paid.

So the correct answer is:

(c) I paid 200% of what I could have online and on sale.
